General description

Indole-3-butyric acid is a plant hormone in the auxin family and is widely used in agriculture since it induces rooting in various plants species such as mung bean (Vigna radiata L.) cuttings.

Application

Indole-3-butyric acid may be used as a reference standard in the determination of indole-3-butyric acid in mung bean sprouts using high performance liquid chromatography with chemiluminescence (CL) detection.
Refer to the product′s Certificate of Analysis for more information on a suitable instrument technique. Contact Technical Service for further support.
